MSNBC says Jeb Bush to meet all remaining GOP candidates but one

Jeb Bush suspends campaign (Large)

MSNBC reported Wednesday that Jeb Bush plans to meet with three of the four remaining GOP Presidential candidates soon, presumably with an eye toward endorsement, ahead of the GOP debate Thursday.

Those three: Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz, and John Kasich.

The most reasonable interpretation of that strategy: Bush is attempting to find the right Anybody-But-Trump candidate.

Though Rubio seems like the logical move, notable is that Neil Bush, Jeb’s brother, endorsed Cruz this week.

George W. Bush, meanwhile, appears to be sitting this one out.
